Unabridged Audiobook
This is a short but sweet story about a secret relationship between two young men during their last year of high school in the early 1980’s. The narrator is gay and confident about it, while his friend is coming to terms with his own feelings and seeks out the narrator to explore them. Like many novels with gay youth themes, it does not have a happy ending, but does have a surprise in the last third of the book that kind of makes it all ok that things didn’t work out. There are not really any graphic depictions of sex, only that you are aware it was happening. If you are a guy and struggled with your sexuality like I did growing up, you’ll be captivated and might see parallels to your own coming of age. The voice actor telling the story has a pleasant voice. I was hesitant to use my credit for a story that’s less than four hours, but I’m glad I did.
